Another Day Over review from The Mag, 30 July 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Another Day Over (Audio CD)
Bonemachine are an electronic foursome from Portsmouth who are due to release their debut album, "Vent", this month. "Another Day Over" is the first single to be taken from the l.p.
The immense rhythm created by the drum loops and bass line are the driving force behind this track, creating a Lunascape style sound, which is further reinforced by some haunting vocals that tell a fairly melancholy tale about devastating loss.
The song has two incredibly well placed breaks with an eerie acoustic guitar and ghostly vocal in the first and a fizzling stop a little later in the song.
"Another Day Over" is a critical mass of sadness and melancholy delivered via an incredibly beautiful and moving song.
From the b-sides, "This Oceans Angry" is a stark contrast to the emotion of the single, with an industrial feel and a touch of aggression to the vocal. The piano remix of "Another Day Over" is an excellent reprise to the cd.
Bonemachine have created themselves a niche with an electronic sound that has very little to do with 80's electronica and a lot of references to indie and rock genres. Definitely worth listening to even if, like me, you've never listened to electronic music before. SAUR
